Survival guide: Seven essential questions and answers

I don't have tickets; can I still get them? Sure. Weekend passes are $50 until the gates open tonight at 6. You can get them through Ticketmaster (plus services charges) or at Moe's Southwest Grill, Books-A-Million and Mountain High Outfitters. Stragglers who wish to buy weekend passes at the gate can get them tonight for $60. Day passes are $28 at the gate or through Ticketmaster.

If I have a ticket, can I come and go as I please? Yes and no. Today, you cannot exit and re-enter after the gates open. Before 6:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, you can leave City Stages and come back in. Ask for a wristband as you exit. If you have that wristband, you can come and go throughout the day and evening. If your first entry at the festival comes after 6:30 p.m., wristbands won't be available and you cannot exit and re-enter.

Can I bring a camera? Yes, you can bring a still camera, but video and audio taping is not permitted.
